    Obligatory link to its cousin: https://guix.gnu.org/ A package manager or a full distro. I use the package manager on top of Debian, it's great, it allows me to get recent package versions the most straightforward way (like the latest Emacs), in exchange of disk space (easily some GB before a `guix gc` cleanup).
